WYD Darling Harbour Performance
This
Thursday night (17 July) Matt will be playing an outdoor concert with his band at Darling
Harbour as part of World Youth Day's 'Super Thursday' celebrations. Early
reports are estimating over 100,000 people will be gathered in and around the
Darling Harbour precinct. The concert will be held at Palm Grove starting at 7:30pm.
New Single Released
This
week Matt released his brand new single The Long Way Home to radio stations
nationally. This is an epic song that talks about the 'prodigal' person -
that person who gets distracted and resists the call of God on their lives ...
perhaps we are all like that at times.
For those of you who live in Sydney, Matt will be doing an exclusive, live
acoustic performance of The Long Way Home as well as an interview on
FM103.2 this Thursday 17 July at 7:30am - Tune in on your radio or listen
online at www.fm1032.com.au
STAY TUNED!
What
do Guy Sebastian, Darlene Zschech, Rebecca St James, Casting Crowns, Nathan Tasker and Matt
Lucas have in common? You will have to stay tuned ... Let's just say that we are very excited to be bringing you this news in
the very near future!
